tnx!
your second advise worked for me. do you know how can I make the section
numbers reset on every new part in the Lyx document as-well?

I agree. Alexander, whenever posting a question or bug report, minimal examples are great. And since you are on Linux, I can say that I find that Linux users/developers especially find them helpful. See for example http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/MinimalExample That said, I know nothing about this particular problem and will not be able to help you (even with an MWE). But I hope someone can help because it sounds like a frustrating issue. Best, Scott

Greek and degree-sign characters in listing
Dear all, i am using Lyx 2.1.0 on Arch Linux x86 and i hope that somebody out there can help me :). Google told me nothing helpful. I am trying to export a document (class: article) to pdf. There are some listings with greek characters and degree signs the appendix of this document. ( Insert->Program Listing, Insert->File(plain text) ) If i try to export this document via pdflatex it tells me that there is no representation for these characters in the current encoding. After confirming with 'OK' the export gets done and all mentioned characters are missing. Using LuaTeX or XeTeX there are no dialogs, but some "Error ... UTF-16 ..." are displayed in the status line for a second. Afterthe export is done the greek characters are missing and the degree-sign is represented as an 'ř'. What i am doing wrong and how can i fix it? Thanks in advance! Regards, Alex

This depends
* on the type of math environment:
It is possible to write \begin{foo} \end{foo},
it is possible to write \begin{foo}{c} \end{foo} where the second
opening bracket needs to be input as `Ctrl-l {`,
but I did not find a way to write unescaped `&` and `\` in math-mode.
* on the notation of "advanced":
if there is a compatible (in input requirements) math environment that
LyX supports and that is not used in the document, a simple
re-definition in the user-preable would do the trick.

As defining an array/multiline type of equation for LyX is a nontrivial
task, there will be no easy way. I can imagine several ways:
* simple hack: ERT for math: allow unescaped special characters like \ and &
this would still provide a LyX-rendering for the "normal" content of the
unsupported environment.
* Define math environments in LyX-layout rules instead of hard-coded. Then,
a LyX-module can add support for new math environments.
* math-macro with "inheritance": base math macros on existing commands and
environments, allowing to change name and maybe some more aspects.
